Is there a dedicated workshirt thread? I couldn't find one...
Anyhoo, I'm looking for a nicely made workshirt. Specifically, something sturdy, not necessarily denim (I'm not going for the cowboy look), and not really into plaid.
I see lots of options from FH, Sam, etc. etc. Any comments or experience? Are the arms typically short like the japanese denim jackets?

Welcome all to the new and improved Samurai thread! Check out the existing thread for more info. I'll update this post on occasion with news, events, etc.

(note that back pocket stitching and tabs will NOT be present on the jeans in this store (some exceptions apply))
Gordon is extremely helpful (and patient). This is your only chance of buying jeans and having a remote chance of returning them if they don't fit. BiG offers a One-wash service if you don't want to soak your jeans yourself. They also offer a chainstitching service to shorten the inseam length.
Japan:
Most of the stores in Japan DO NOT ship outside of Japan. For information on proxies and shipping, see the Proxy Thread or the Options for Buying Japanese Goods thread.
2nd - ships internationally, but restrictions apply. Jeans, Jackets, Other.

THE ONLY OPTION FOR ACQUIRING SAMURAI JEANS WITH BACK-POCKET STITCHING AND A RED TAB IS TO ORDER THEM FROM JAPAN*. BiG DOES NOT* SELL MODELS WITH THESE FEATURES.
*with the exception of lee-style reproductions and certain models with low-visibility stitching
